## FAQ

### Is a enduro e-MTB worth it?

Yes if you ride in hills, over longer distances, carry loads or want to arrive without sweating. Enduro e-MTBs cost roughly €/$4,500–7,000 for good mid-range models and weigh several kilos more than a regular enduro bike.

### How fast do e-bikes go in Europe and the US?

In the EU a pedelec assists up to 25 km/h with a 250 W motor and is treated like a normal bicycle; faster S-pedelecs (45 km/h) need insurance and a number plate. In the US most states use three classes: Class 1 pedal assist to 20 mph, Class 2 with a throttle to 20 mph, and Class 3 pedal assist to 28 mph.

### Mid-drive or hub motor?

A mid-drive motor sits at the cranks and uses the bike's gears — better for hills and natural-feeling power. A hub motor sits in the wheel — simpler and cheaper, fine for flat city riding.

### How big a battery do I need?

Around 400–500 Wh covers most commutes; 600–750 Wh is better for hilly rides, cargo and long days. Real range depends on assist level, weight, terrain and temperature.
